We have featured this wonderment Cili Marsall before but holy moly and buckets of blood this is amazing . . . I so wanted to play the piano like this but sadly it was not to be . . .check Cili’s left hand
After so many requests — here it is: the full version of "Jimmy Dorsey's Boogie" from the International Boogie Nights in Uster. 🎹A little story to go with it: Winifred Atwell, who made this boogie famous, was the first Black artist ever to reach #1 in the UK charts — in 1954, at a piano. Songs like this deserve to keep living on stage, and bringing it back with these two was pure joy: 🥁 Mario von Holten on drums 🎻 Arno Schulz on double bass
